RONNIE JAMES DIO: 'A Photographic Memoir' Due In November
Rufus Stone Limited Editions has set a November 30 release date for the "Ronnie James Dio – A Photographic Memoir" book.
Ronnie James Dio was one of rock's most respected and talented frontmen, renowned for his instantly recognizable vocals, lyrics and stagecraft. On May 16, 2010, Ronnie succumbed to cancer and the world of hard rock lost one of its greatest talents.
Renowned music photographer PG Brunelli traveled the world with RonniePG's photography and weaves a memoir of Ronnie's life starting onstage at Donington Monsters of Rock in 1983. Featuring unique written contributions from Bruce Dickinson (IRON MAIDEN), Rob Halford (JUDAS PRIEST), Doug Aldrich (DIO, WHITESNAKE) and many of Ronnie's peers, colleagues and fellow professionals, this book has been compiled with the knowledge and approval of Dio's wife/manager, Wendy.
Available in two limited edition versions, starting at just £40 (plus postage and handling), "Ronnie James Dio – A Photographic Memoir" is released at the end of November 2010. To secure your standard or hardkase version (£150 plus postage and handling) early ordering is essential. £10 from the sale of the standard version and £30 from the sale of the hardkase edition will be donated to the Stand Up And Shout Cancer Fund, in honor of Ronnie James Dio.

BRET MICHAELS To Undergo Heart Surgery
According to The Pulse of Radio, Bret Michaels' health woes are not over yet. The rocker/reality star will undergo heart surgery in January to repair a hole in his heart — a condition he's had since birth, but only recently discovered.
His rep said, "Is he 100 percent? No, but he's in good spirits, he's having fun on the road, he loves his fans and has always said music heals him. He said that there are times when, of course, he worries but he has great people around him and he's very cautious."
The hole was discovered after Michaels suffered a stroke several months ago — which came on the heels of a brain hemorrhage. He's since made a remarkable recovery and returned to touring.
His rep added, "Maybe sometimes he gets a little tired easier and on occasion he'll get a headache, but that's when he knows it's time to rest. He'll rest up, have surgery, take some time off, hopefully take a family vacation and get back on the road touring and promoting his upcoming book."

King's X Kick Off Co-Headlining Tour With Accept This Week
International music critics and rock gourmets agree: King's X is among the most unusual acts in the history of rock music. Their technical skills are above reproach, and their creativity has impressed fans and media alike. Next to Rush, there is currently no other rock trio capable of producing such a dense and at the same time transparent sound. The much anticipated double CD/DVD set, Live Love in London, showcases prime examples of King's X's incredible live show of classic groove rock featuring great melodies with vocal harmonies, driving rhythms and tough guitars. The album is set for a November release through InsideOut Music and will be available as a deluxe DVD+2CD edition in a special embossed package, as well as a 2CD set. A standard DVD-only version will also be available exclusively through CMDistro.com.
The band are also extremely excited to embark on a co-headlining run with metal legends Accept, which kicks off tomorrow (Sept. 24th). Either see below or head over now to http://www.kingsxrocks.com/ or http://www.facebook.com/KingsXFanPage to view their touring itinerary. Stay tuned in the coming weeks for samples of new music from Live Love in London and pre-order package info.
Live Love in London is the first official DVD release by a band renowned for just such a transcendent rock show! The King's X trio of Ty Tabor (guitars, vocals), Dug Pinnick (bass, vocals) and Jerry Gaskill (drums, vocals) have spanned continents and decades together, honing their craft, welcoming their fans in to experience inspired performances that come from their hearts.
Live Love in London was shot in January of 2009 at the Electric Ballroom in London, UK, because, as Tabor states, "London was the first place that accepted King's X. It has always been my favorite place to play." Pinnick recalls, "We were touring the US, playing for very small crowds, then we went to London; it was the Marquee and it was sold out!" Gaskill agrees, "London was the first place to make me feel like we might actually be a valid band."

He started MELECHESH as an escape and to express himself, which in turn caused him to lose favor with his family who cast him out. He later landed a record deal and relocated to Europe where he had a lot of challenges but also many significant successes. This is his life and his destiny is to create Sonic Magick!

ARSIS: North American Headlining Tour Announced
Virginia-based melodic tech death metal masters, ARSIS, are pleased to announce their headlining tour set to take place this upcoming December! "A Tour for the Sick" is presented by MetalInjection.net and will include 8 bit metal heroes POWERGLOVE and the Sumerian Records touring juggernaut CONDUCTING FROM THE GRAVE. ARSIS vocalist/guitarist Jim Malone commented:
"What does a band that is notorious for canceling tours, video game induced tendinitis, and a Noah Martin look-a-like all have in common? If you have spent the better part of your existence trying to play 16th triplet arpeggios at 250 bpm you will probably be overcome with joy (or something) to hear that we (meaning ARSIS dudes), POWERGLOVE, and CONDUCTING FROM THE GRAVE are teaming up for a US tour this December. We are beyond stoked for our first headlining tour in support of Starve for the Devil and hope to see you at one (or more) of the tour dates. We promise to 'turn up the hell' on this one and make your weekend (or week night) one that is 'rock hard' and metalificated."

THE POODLES – Live DVD out November 5th 2010
Frontiers Records is pleased to announce the release of THE POODLES live package including the "No Quarter" CD and "In The Flesh" DVD on November 5th 2010.
Having carved in stone their reputation as prime time entertainers with the release of three acclaimed studio albums and over 350 shows in the entire Europe in the past few years, not counting Gold and Platinum record awards in their home country, THE POODLES close the first chapter of their musical adventure and set their sails for the next step.
As a tribute to the first years on the road, THE POODLES offer the fans a live package including a CD and a DVD recorded during the "Clash of the Elements" tour in 2009, which portrays the band in the most natural environment: the live show. "The high points for us as a band is anytime we go on stage", says guitar player Henrik Bergqvist. "This may sound like somewhat of a cliché but it is no less true. It doesn't matter if we play a crowd of 10.000 people at Graspop or in front of a handful on a rainy November Monday in Copenhagen, those are the moments we relish and live for. We've had so many special moments on stage over the past couple of years that it seems impossible to single even a few of them out. Having said this, some special moments can certainly be seen on the live DVD and heard on the live CD".
"We are very proud of how the live CD and live DVD turned out and we feel that they really shows what the band is like on stage" continues Bergqvist, "being able to watch a DVD of your favourite band is great and there are a few really nice ones out there, but the connection that takes place between the band and the crowd during live shows cannot be formatted to the screen. You can catch a glimpse of it, but to experience a band live will always be different from listening to or viewing a recording of that band. Have a look and see for yourselves, though!"
Aptly titled "In The Flesh" the DVD is a real in deep look at the Poodles style of life with in-deep interviews, that present each band member, behind-the stage instant footage and a collection of the promo videoclips shot for the "Clash of the Elements" promotion. In addition, a selection of the band's classic cuts performed live shows that the Poodles are delivering the goods when the play live. The live cd, soundtrack of the DVD, plus the song "Lullaby For Jimmy" as cd exclusive, shows that behind the look and the words there is a solid band playing great music!
Henrik concludes: "The future plans for The Poodles is closely connected to the band's cooperation with Frontiers Records. The band expects to play for an ever expanding audience as a result of it and take the mission of Heavy Metal to virgin lands. We want to see our beloved fans again on the road and make new friends too. The future is bright for us, and that's good because we already wear shades!"
The live CD "No Quarter" tracklisting includes:
Too Much Of Everything; Caroline; Seven Seas; Metal Will Stand Tall; Like No Tomorrow; One Out Of Ten; Lullaby For Jimmy; Drum Solo; Echoes From The Past; Thunderball; I Rule The Night; Night Of Passion; Flesh & Blood; Line Of Fire.
The Live DVD "In The Flesh" table of contents include:
Movie: Introduction; Stockholm, Party & Fun; About The Poodles; Metal Standing Tall; The Director & Crew; Being On Top; Jakob; Henrik; Pontus; Kicken; The First Five Rows; Tribute To The Fans; End Credits.
Concert: Too Much Of Everything; Caroline; Seven Seas; Metal Will Stand Tall; Like No Tomorrow; One Out Of Ten; Echoes From The Past; Thunderball; I Rule The Night; Night Of Passion; Flesh & Blood; Line Of Fire.
Extras: Like No Tomorrow (Video); I Rule The Night (Video); In The Flesh (Video); Warrior (The Movie Trailer); Majestic Film And Metal Warriors
The DVD will be released in NTSC Region Free format with Screen 16:9 and Mix in 2.0.
There will also be a limited release of a luxury packaging including the live CD "No Quarter" and the DVD "In The Flesh" is a luxury digipak edition.
"In The Flesh" trailer can be enjoyed following this link on Youtube:
The songs "One Out Of Ten" and "Caroline" can exclusively be listened in full in streaming on the Frontiers Web radio. Tune in at: www.frontiers.it/webradio

BISON b.c. Tour Canada this Fall
Vancouver BC's BISON will be returning this fall to ON/QC Canada with their mighty mammoth sound starting Oct. 12 in Armstrong BC and ending Oct. 23 in Hamilton, ONT!
These dates are in support of their latest release "Dark Ages" that came out via Metal Blade Records on April 13/10.
A bison is "a big, hairy, strong animal," says James Farwell, who plays guitar and sings for Bison b.c. That could as just as well describe the band, which rose from the ass-end of the continent in Vancouver, Canada, to utter its doomed, plaintive call, and tramples through the constellations on its four shaggy limbs (James, Dan And, Masa Anzai, and Brad Mackinnon). Ghostly, windswept prairies, the mythical haunts of native lore: it is all there. Self-described "Canadian dirtbags" and veterans of Vancouver's deep thrash and indie scenes, they are hitting their stride and offering up a new soundtrack for our last party before certain extinction. There is illness, abuse, apocalypse, and French horn.
Their first Metal Blade release, Quiet Earth, showed what that earth's last sound might be like. It was heavy, sick, and crazy; stomping and banging, elegiac with cello. Just beneath the rock they described a bad trip through a devastated world where resigned dignity and camaraderie with the friends that remain are the only consolations.
This mixture of rowdiness and gentleness is very much of their hard-living, hard-loving hometown: fucked-up modernity's last outpost on the rim of a vast, menacing wilderness. In their new release, James sings, "Vancouver's an empty bottle, our dying thirst causing problems. Stand at dawn, the beginning of something heartfelt and replaceable." No matter where we are, this is what it has come to in this age. So let's listen to these gentlemen and rock out together.
Relentless touring – with the likes of Priestess, Baroness, 3 Inches Of Blood, Shadows Fall, Helmet, Voivod, Kylessa, High On Fire and more – has fine tuned the band's dedication to the riff to metallic perfection. Dark Ages breathes like a rabid animal that you'd find tied up in WINO's backyard. It's Flying V's, analog perfection, loud & sludgy, played by hairy dudes in dirty denim jackets.
10.12 Armstrong, BC @ Branding Iron Pub
10.14 Saskatoon, SK @ Amigo's
10.15 Brandon, MB @ Parthenon Pizza
10.16 Winnipeg, MB @ The Royal Albert Arms

Metalodic signs Kaktus Project (Henning Basse, Amanda Sommerville etc…)
Kaktus Project was created in 2008. Its style is based on melodic metal music : you mix a bit of Stratovarius, Edguy, sprinkled with Helloween and then you get Kaktus Project. Effective song titles with catchy melodies as guitar solos, both technical and fast. The presence of various artists provides consistent as different titles, switching from a speed metal song to a ballad at the piano sung by Amanda Somerville, accompanied by Oliver Palotai.
So Kaktus Project in a whole album of metal music, unpretentious, effective and various, through a large number of artists. The cover is behind the brushes of JP Fournier (Edguy, Avantasia etc…)
The release of Supersition is scheduled for the end of 2010. You can listen to the first single Farewell at www.myspace.com/metalodicrecords or www.myspace.com/kaktus project
All guests and track list are listed below. More infos and cover will be revealed soon!
Track List
Kaktus Project – Superstition
1 : Alone in the dark "3:44"
2 : Farewell "4:55"
3 : I'm living my death "4:45"

A dedication ceremony for the newly completed Habitat for Humanity home will be Thursday at 5:30 p.m. at the house which is located at 1717 Rose Lane.
The ninth local Habitat house was constructed in partnership with the Claudia Ramirez family. "The public is encouraged to attend to see the latest house and celebrate this milestone with Claudia and her family," said Habitat Board President Dan Robinson. A short program will be held and refreshments will be served.
Robinson said the BV County chapter continues to search for a new partner family for the tenth house which will be located adjacent to the ninth home. Construction on the house is expected to begin next spring.
Habitat for Humanity builds simple yet decent homes for low-income families with volunteer labor and donations as well as some grants. However, the houses are not just given to the families in need. Part of the partnership agreement says that the adult members must work at least 200 "sweat equity hours."
Habitat helps build a sense of community and decent housing stock for families that might otherwise never have an opportunity for home ownership. All other labor is volulnteer except for a few tasks that require a professional contractor, such as electrical or plumbing.
The family will then assume the mortgage after the completion of the home, however, with the volunteer labor and donations of material, the home will be available to them for a lower cost with a zero percent interest mortgage.

Annie Ernaux, Les années
June 27, 2016 | by Matteo Pericoli
Longtime readers of the Daily will remember Matteo Pericoli's Windows on the World project, which featured his pen-and-ink drawings of the views from writers' windows around the world. Matteo is also the founder of the Laboratory of Literary Architecture, an interdisciplinary project that looks at fiction through the lens of architecture, designing and building stories as architectural projects. In this new series, Matteo shares some of his designs and what they reveal about the stories they're modeled on.
There is a moment in Annie Ernaux's autobiographical novel, Les années, in which the author writes that she "would like to unify the multiplicity of images of herself—separate, disjoined—through the thread of a story: that of her existence [...] fused to the movement of a generation." (Translation mine.) Read More »
When Emperors Are No More
June 15, 2016 | by Michael Lipkin
Why did an intelligent Jewish scholar write an appreciation of a German tyrant?
In 1992, a medievalist named Norman Cantor published Inventing the Middle Ages, a series of light, biographical sketches intended to show readers how a few historians from the twentieth century had brought the Middle Ages alive to the general public, with, as the flap copy put it, "vivid images of wars, tournaments, plagues, saints and kings, knights and ladies." One chapter, "The Nazi Twins," was devoted partly to Ernst Kantorowicz, a Princeton scholar who'd written a magisterial study of sovereignty in medieval law, philosophy, and art. Cantor alleged that Kantorowicz—who was not only Jewish, but had spoken up against Hitler at great peril to his academic career, and whose mother has perished in a concentration camp—had "impeccable Nazi credentials": an outrageous slander, in the eyes of his former students and colleagues. When The New York Review of Books ran a largely favorable essay on Inventing the Middle Ages, the magazine received a flood of angry letters. "Where is this Cantor [a] professor? Disney World?" demanded one reader.
But "this Cantor" was not entirely specious in his claims. In 1927, when he was only thirty, Kantorowicz had written a seven-hundred-page biography of Frederick II, a Holy Roman Emperor from the thirteenth century. In lofty German that imitated the Latin style of Frederick's time, Kantorowicz painted the Emperor as a redeemer of the German people who united the north with the Roman south and brought the barbaric East under his iron rule. Kantorowicz had a Hindu good luck symbol, the swastika, put on the biography's cover, and on its dedication page he recalled laying a wreath on Frederick's grave in Palermo. "That wreath," he wrote, "may fairly be taken as a symbol that—not alone in learned circles—enthusiasm is astir for the great German Rulers of the past: in a day when emperors are no more." Among the book's enthusiastic readers was Hermann Göring, who gave Mussolini a signed copy for his birthday. Read More »
The Nostalgia of Constipation, and Other News
May 23, 2016 | by Dan Piepenbring
- On the streets of English, adverbs are the knockoff Rolex salesmen lurking in the shadows, always ready to sell you something shiny and fake. Christian Lorentzen urges you to stay away: "The adverbs easiest to hate are the so-called sentence adverbs—also known as conjunctive adverbs. Writers who lean on the crutches of moreover, accordingly, consequently, and likewise are declaring a lack of confidence in the sequence of their own logic or a lack of faith in their readers' ability to follow it. Deploying indeed is tantamount to saying, 'I've just had a thought and, indeed, I've just had another.' Next time you come across the word meanwhile, ask yourself when else all this could have been happening. What is the adverbial phrase of course but a smug duo dropped in to congratulate writer and reader for already agreeing with each other. Nevertheless, nonetheless, and the atrocious however are symptoms of an anxiety over a proliferation of the word but. But you can never have too many helpings of but, and sound thinking will make hay of contradictions."
- Today in bowel movements: they're never as good as they used to be. As Maggie Koerth-Baker writes, "Since at least the Renaissance, Western cultures have fretted about their own bowels while looking back to an imagined past where mankind pooped in peace and harmony. According to James Whorton, professor emeritus of medical history and ethics at the University of Washington School of Medicine, modern life has long been considered the ultimate cause of constipation. Take, for instance, a bit of doggerel poetry from mid-1600s England: 'And for to make us emulate, / The good old Father doth relate / The vigour of our Ancestors, / Whose shiting far exceeded ours' … More than just nostalgia, though, the belief that modern lifestyles caused constipation was viewed as a medical emergency, on the scale of what we think of the obesity epidemic today."
- Most historical fiction aspires to verisimilitude—the author hopes to convince readers that she's conjured an accurate version of the past. But "a handful of recent works of fiction," Lucy Ives writes, "have taken up history on radically different terms. Rather than presenting a single, definitive story—an ostensibly objective chronicle of events—these books offer a past of competing perspectives, of multiple voices. They are not so much historical as archival: instead of giving us the imagined experience of an event, they offer the ambiguous traces that such events leave behind. These fictions do not focus on fact but on fact's record, the media by which we have any historical knowledge at all. In so doing, such books call the reader's attention to both the problems and the pleasures of history's linguistic remains … restoring historical narratives to what they have perhaps always already been: provoking and serious fantasies, convincing reconstructions, true fictions."
- When I pass by a beautiful woman, the first thing I think is, God, I hope she doesn't get tuberculosis. Then I think, She probably already has tuberculosis. I'm especially inclined to believe this if the woman is dressed in a high Victorian style—in the nineteenth century, I have learned, "one of the ways people judged a woman's predisposition to tuberculosis was by her attractiveness, [historian Carol] Day says. 'That's because tuberculosis enhances those things that are already established as beautiful in women,' she explains, such as the thinness and pale skin that result from weight loss and the lack of appetite caused by the disease. [A 1909 book] confirms this notion, with the authors noting: 'A considerable number of patients have, and have had for years previous to their sickness, a delicate, transparent skin, as well as fine, silky hair.' Sparkling or dilated eyes, rosy cheeks and red lips were also common in tuberculosis patients—characteristics now known to be caused by frequent low-grade fever."
- Pity the Emily Dickinson biographers, for theirs is a life of mystery and suffering: "In the twenty-first century, Emily Dickinson has become very much about our selves, an interpretation that has been allowed to flourish partly because of her anonymity: The bulk of her poems, of course, were published after she died, and she lived with her parents all her life, unmarried and leaving letters that only hint at possible lovers, hardly ever leaving her home. During the last thirty years, it has been many writers' impulse to try her on, explore the 'masks,' as [Jerome] Charyn calls them, that she wore in her poems, and give motive to her writings through more expressive means."
The Glories of Word Processing, and Other News
April 15, 2016 | by Dan Piepenbring
- Our Southern editor, John Jeremiah Sullivan, on David Foster Wallace's tennis writing: "David Foster Wallace wrote about tennis because life gave it to him … He wrote about it in fiction, essays, journalism, and reviews; it may be his most consistent theme at the surface level. Wallace himself drew attention, consciously or not, to both his love for the game and its relevance to how he saw the world … For me, the cumulative effect of Wallace's tennis-themed nonfiction is a bit like being presented with a mirror, one of those segmented mirrors they build and position in space, only this one is pointed at a writer's mind. The game he writes about is one that, like language, emphasizes the closed system, makes a fetish of it ('Out!'). He seems both to exult and to be trapped in its rules, its cruelties. He loves the game but yearns to transcend it."
- Everyone likes to shit on Microsoft Word now, but Dylan Hicks, reviewing Matthew G. Kirschenbaum's Track Changes: A Literary History of Word Processing, reminds us that the genesis of word processors was an exciting time to be a writer—and that word processing offered a glimpse of perfection: "Culling from specialized publications, mainstream journalism, and author interviews, Kirschenbaum recaptures the excitement and optimism writers often felt in the face of this magical new technology. To many, word processing seemed to promise a new possibility for aesthetic perfection. 'Perfect' was the leading marketing keyword, found in ad copy and in product names such as WordPerfect, Letter Perfect, and Perfect Writer, and more than a few novelists greeted the mantra as something more than hype. If, in one traditional view, literary perfection was either illusory or the province of poems and other short works, now, it seemed, even a long novel could be refined to an apotheosis of unalterable integrity. The modularity of word-processed text made major structural reorganization a matter of a few clicks (well, you'd probably need to switch back and forth between several floppy disks). You could tinker endlessly with sentences: transposing phrases, deleting a comma, replacing an adjective, restoring the comma. You could search out and decimate pet words and phrases. Hannah Sullivan, a scholar quoted by Kirschenbaum, wrote in 2013 that, with word processing, "the cost of revision" had 'fallen almost to zero.' Kirschenbaum quotes a 1988 interview with Anne Rice in which she held that, with word processing, 'there's really no excuse for not writing the perfect book.' "
- The main problem with using enormous mirrors to communicate with extraterrestrials is that it's too expensive. Yes, it sounds like a surefire way to make contact—you just rig up a heliotrope and beam a lot of light to the moon, where all aliens live—but when Victorian-era inventors tried to make good on this idea, they realized that mirrors aren't cheap. Sarah Laskow explains: "In 1874, Charles Cros, a French inventor with a flair for poetry (or, perhaps, a poet with a flair for invention), floated the idea of focusing electric light on Mars or Venus using parabolic mirrors. The next year, in 1875, Edvard Engelbert Neovius came up with a scheme involving 22,500 electric lamps. Then, an astronomer writing under the name A. Mercier proposed putting a series of reflectors on the Eiffel Tower, which would capture light at sunset and redirect it towards Mars … In 1909, William Pickering, the American astronomer who ... proposed the existence of a Planet O, gave some idea why. He calculated that a system of mirrors that could reach across the distance from Earth to Mars would cost about $10 million to construct."
- Eileen Myles on living in Marfa: "I went to Marfa on a Lannan residency in March of 2015 & fell in love with the place. I had been hearing about Marfa forever and grumpily thinking why can't I get invited there though most of my friends who had been there are visual artists but I wanted in. I think I even told the Lannan people about my deep frustration as I was accepting the invitation. Everyone loves Marfa though some people love to laugh at it because it's the most delightful combination of rough and twee. Things are falling down but there's always someone there to catch it for a year and put a sign on it and make it cool. It sees itself and yet the land is always hovering … But driving that stretch which is bordered by mountains is my real vista. I like to listen to music and drive along that road and sometimes the train passes. That's heaven to me."
- It's Friday, people. Get out there and befriend a pelican. The dean of a Czech medical school did it, so you can, too: "Vladimír Komárek, the dean of the Second Faculty of Medicine at Charles University in Prague, met his college's adopted pelican and immediately had a bond with it … In an interview posted on the university's website, the dean said the faculty had adopted a pelican at Prague Zoo, but he had never personally visited it … He scooped up his new feathered friend in his arms and posed for the cameras. Many commenters lightheartedly suggested that the duo shared the same haircut, and said this was why they appeared to get on so well. The bird seemed calm in his arms, despite the fact he was a human stranger."

An Indulgence of Authors' Self-Portraits
March 24, 2016 | by The Paris Review
"An Indulgence of Authors' Self-Portraits" appeared in our Fall 1976 issue, the same year Burt Britton's book Self-Portraits—Book People Picture Themselves was published. Britton's book displays his collection of self-doodles by famous authors, artist, athletes, actors, and musicians, much of which was sold at auction in 2009. "So what does Mr. Britton look like?" asked the New York Times in 2009. "He refused to be photographed." —Jeffery Gleaves
One evening fifteen years ago Burt Britton (now head of the Review department at the Strand Bookstore) and Norman Mailer were sitting together in the Village Vanguard where Britton then worked. On impulse, Britton asked Mailer for a self-portrait. Mailer complied—the first of a collection which began to fill the pages of a blank book in the Strand. These were done by friends—primarily writers—who entered their drawings and salutations when they visited the store. No one has refused him a self-portrait. When he remarked on James Jones' generosity, Jones explained, "Burt, for Christ's sake, I wouldn't be left out of that book!"
As his collection grew, Britton was approached by a number of publishers, but always refused publication on the grounds that the self-portraits were the property of his private mania. But recently Anais Nin and others have persuaded him to let others in on how writers view themselves. Random House will publish the entire collection this fall under the title, Self-Portraits—Book People Picture Themselves. Many of the portraits reproduced here are by writers who have been published and/or interviewed in this magazine. Read More »

Apparently she wants "nothing to do with him." You mean that didn't happen while he was jerking off and eating shrimp in front of her?A "source close to the actress" (read: her publicist) told the Daily News that Munn was pissed about Ratner's appearance on her old show, Attack of the Show, and that she was avoiding going out so that she wouldn't have to talk about it. You don't need a source close to her too tell you that, I could tell you that! I mean, he's a gross grossperson and what he said is gross and if he said that about me, I'd throw a shrimp cocktail in his face. If I were Olivia Munn, I'd want it to go away too. Anyway, supposedly Ratner told Munn to tune into his Howard Stern interview where he would make everything better.

Pocket-lint Podcast #97 - Virgin Media V Festival 2012Pocket-lint
A bit of a departure for the podcast this week as the team report from the swanky and exclusive Virgin Media Louder Lounge in Hylands Park, Chelmsford, on the eve of the V Festival.
They discuss their favourite festival gadgets, which festival technology has stood them in good stead in the past, and reveal a little more about the free wireless internet and other ways to hook up when visiting the V Festival this year. Plus, Rik talks about why he's wearing a Pac-Man ghost inspired poncho, considering it's about 30 degrees out there.
There's also a treat in store, as the team got some time with Tom Oldham, headline sponsor Virgin Media's official photographer, who talks about the kit needed to shoot a massive festival and reveals a few pro tips along the way.
Former Gamesmaster presenter and editor of news Rik Henderson is joined by contributing editors Hunter Skipworth and Danny Brogan.

has a lot going for it: clean, accessible design; a great library of family-friendly games; a still-iconic controller design that can be used for motion games or more traditional button-based games; Virtual Console library and WiiWare games that offer a unique and affordable collection of classic titles; the Wii Remote Plus controller, updated with built-in MotionPlus; and Netflix streaming. THE BAD: Online connectivity is hampered by closed-garden design; graphics and video playback cap at 480p; other than Netflix, the Wii has no other video-streaming or entertainment offerings, and cant play CDs or DVDs; its graphics continue to look ever more outdated compared with rival consoles, and the unique qualities that motion gaming offered are now available in accessories from rival consoles; and, finally, the decision to replace both Wii Sports games with Mario Kart in this bundle may disappoint casual consumers.

Re: How long for AMEX to report to CR
Sportsgirl wrote:
I've noticed AMEX has been updating credit reports a LOT faster than they used to. They used to be a month behind, but I've noticed the last couple of months they've been updating a couple of days after the statement cuts. Not sure about new cards being added to CRs though.
I agree they have been very punctual in their reporting.

obviously, we'd be lying if we said that appearances did not matter. Sadly, (or fortunately for you), society will judge individuals, especially women, on their looks and we know that generally, the guys who use escort agencies are no different to the rest of society. With this in mind, you'll discover that every girl in our vast escort portfolio has the sort of looks that would certainly turn heads if they were walking down among the Goa beach, or really any beach anywhere on earth.
Most clients say that they look even better in real life while you may discover that the girls do not look exactly like their pictures. Probably something regarding the number of make-up they wear for his or her professional photos and the fact that most guys, if asked, will say that they favour, the natural, no makeup look. Please note that all the photos of our Goa escorts Service is not completely counterfeit. Add for this, the condition for the girls to keep their bodies in shape.
It does mean keeping their bodies healthy and well cared for, although this doesn't always mean having a model girl body, in fact, some of most popular Female Goa escorts have a fuller more voluptuous figure, which appeals to many guys. Yet we do find that the vast bulk of our Independent Goa escort girls have incredible bodies, some of which have been improved to appeal to those men who love the idea of busty escorts.
We have found that our escorts services in goa have something quite special in common, which's the innate desire to supply the best Goa escort services that they can. They have a common understanding that to be able to function as finest; they need certainly to offer a service which will be second to none.
The vast majority of our Independent Goa girls love the idea of learning all about the Goa way of life, meeting new people, improving their English and usually loving every new encounter that comes along. That is why you'll discover that they're open, friendly and willing to chat and have fun. They don't just go through the motions, like some escorts, but prefer to engage completely with their customers, to give you a service that is intimate, personal and pleasurable. You've probably all met using an escort at some point in your lifetime, who is been completely detached, devoid of emotion and simply going through the motions. While this type of approach may be what some punters desire, we're positive the bulk of you might be looking for someone who at least looks to love spending time with you. All things considered, feel desired and we all love to be needed, even if we are meeting someone for the first time.
you will find that many of our Independent escorts in goa have left top flight livelihood behind, or are here to further their schooling. What this means is you'll generally reach meet with. They are perfectly effective at engaging in all sorts of dialog and conversations and make dinner companies that are outstanding, particularly if you are invited to a business or formal dinner. Needless to say, the fact which they look absolutely stunning is a big bonus. You'll find that you'll soon be involved in a wide variety of conversations depending on your own interests when you can stop staring at them for long enough, and your ability to refrain from whisking your escort back to your place for some naughty chat instead!
Quite a few Russian Goa escorts are multilingual, speaking a range of languages, not only English or those found in Independent Europe states, but languages for example russian and Italian too.
This makes them very appealing to men of nationalities, not merely indian clients. Although some of our escorts just have fundamental English when they first arrive in Goa, they generally have the determination to learn the language and they typically become fairly smooth very fast. In any event, even if English isn't a language they're not completely uncomfortable with, you'll find that 'body language' and fire will transcend any communication problems. We are sure you'll agree that sometimes you do not need to speak to get across your point.
While many clients would rather use their assembly with one among our Independent Goa escorts to spend intimate time alone in the privacy of either their residence, hotel room or the escort's flat, we additionally get many bookings for our escorts to join customers for a wide selection of social scenarios. Occasionally it is just an intimate dinner for two in one of the top restaurants of Goa, other times clients request couple escorts to make up a company dinner 'foursome'. Occasionally a client novels he to be accompanied by an escort to a more formal occasion or to become a 'hostess'. For functions for example these, it's important that the right escort is selected, the sort of woman who not only looks refined and elegant, but one which has the social skills and ability to blend into any social situation.
We find our Escorts in Goa are perfect for these kinds of occasions and many excel at being companies in the corporate world. Obviously, some customers are looking for women who are liberated, outrageous and free to join more 'fun' get together in Goa nightclubs, at private parties as well as at celebrations in other areas of goa, including the baga and calangute. Our Goa escorts have plenty of experience of being fun loving companions for celebrations of businessmen or within promotional events.
An substantial proportion prefer to spend their meetings behind closed doors while many customers do choose to meet with their escort in goa in public. They adore the idea of experiencing their very unique brand of personal abilities and getting to know their companion in a manner that is more intimate. All our escorts shine in providing the sort of escort services that most guys dream about. From a no holds barred GFE (girlfriend experience) to all kinds of naughty games and role play. Others are sweet and saucy, making them the ideal choice if you've always had a fantasy about the naughty girl.
As I keep close take a gander at all matters like snappy reaction, great client relationship, security and friendliness, every one of my men who come to me feel secure and appreciate with me in a fretful, hazardless and undisturbed way. I take aggregate look after them. Trustworthiness, commitment and ideal client administration is the trinity of my Goa escorts administrations. The quality of administration lies in trustworthiness, on time conveyance and reasonable managing.

BMW pinpoints qualities suppliers need to compete
Published: Friday, October 1, 1993 at 3:15 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, October 1, 1993 at 12:00 a.m.
GREENVILLE - Suppliers that want to be competitive in the global marketplace must be customer-oriented, quality-minded, cost competitive, quick, precise and very pa tient, a BMW official from New Jersey told a crowd of automotive suppliers Thursday. Dehler Bruno Dehler, man ager of international and domestic purchasing for BMW North America, told a group of more than 200 luncheon listeners that it takes three to five years to cultivate international business. "It does not come overnight," said Dehler, a keynote speaker at the Automotive Supplier Excellence '93 conference in the Palmetto Expo Center. His top 10 list of qualities of the ideal sup plier include creativity and innovation, dead line punctuality, flexibility, efficiency and the willingness to carry out independent tests for quality and reliability. Dehler orchestrated BMW North America's purchase of $250 million in high- tech products with 29 U.S. companies last year. BMW's purchasing volume reached $9 billion total in 1992, 20 percent of which came from outside Germany, he said. He warned the auto parts suppliers in the crowd that companies wanting success in the international automotive community must take the global venture seriously. "Top management must take a long-term approach and believe in it," Dehler said. The suppliers must also: Target the markets, countries and cus tomers they wish to court, and send repre sentatives who speak the language and know the culture to live in those communities so they can maintain solid contacts.
Recognize their advantage in the global marketplace. U.S. suppliers have the cost advantage of 18 percent over Japanese companies and 12 percent over European firms. Be technological leaders willing to reduce costs. "Don't pay too much attention to exchange rates (because) they change too often," he said. "Never, never give up." Dehler said the supplier trend is moving away from the days of the "old bidding wars" where automakers requested bids from up to 10 companies on each part. "The new way, the BMW way," he said, fosters a partnership between car makers and their suppliers, which are chosen early on in the design phase of a new car. That way, the "partners" choose mutually acceptable cost targets and work toward them together. That tactic will help BMW build its new "mystery car" - expected to be a roadster - in 38 months, the quickest yet for the German automaker. "Next time we'll have to do it in 36 months," Dehler said. He spoke on the last day of the three-day ASE '93 conference and exhibit, which attracted 4,000 participants in its first year, said B.J. Nash, spokeswoman for Greenville Technical College, whose Southeastern Institute for Advanced Technologies sponsored the event. Dehler commended ASE organizers for doing "an outstanding job," telling the crowd, "The Southeast really has a great future to be another automotive center." BRUNO1

Temporary ACA Route Road Closures / Re: Idaho Hot Springs Mountain Bike Route - Spring 2016« on: June 03, 2016, 02:07:15 am »
To find IHSMBR, I would probably zoom in on the Great Salt Lake (easy to see at national scale), then track north to find Craters of the Moon (you can see the lava flows) and then west to IHSMBR area. You'll be able to pick out the White Clouds and other mountain ranges. To use this tool, you do need to have a knowledge of the local topography.

This is a discussion on Shooting well with poor eyesight 4 days after LASEK within the Defensive Carry Guns forums, part of the Defensive Carry Discussions category; First, just a word about LASEK. LAS E K is correct LAS I K is a completely different procedure. Recovery from LAS I K ...
First, just a word about LASEK. LASEK is correct LASIK is a completely different procedure. Recovery from LASIK is about 3 days; recovery from LASEK is about 3 weeks. Im 8 days into recovery now and cant see worth a hoot. Soooo ..
I thought it would be interesting to see how well I could shoot under the current conditions. The current conditions (4 days after surgery) is out of focus eyes and a fog/cloud in my right eye (my shooting eye of course).
As bad as I wanted to shoot my Kimber Super Carry Pro, I chose to shoot my Sig 226R Elite Enhanced SRT. The reason? I could put a laser on the rails and try that too. I didnt have a laser I could use on the 1911.
I could hardly see the sights at all and few details on the target. I used a reversed B-27, i.e. a white target with black scoring rings. Even at 3 yds, I had a hard time seeing the X. A couple of times I had to drop the gun down, blink and squint to get my bearings a bit better.
I could see blurred hints of the sights and at 5 yards and beyond, I could see no details on the target. I shot my standard eval drill of 5 shots each at 3, 5, 7, 10, & 15 yds. However, I did reduce the round count from 5 shots at each range to 4. That would leave me with 10 rounds for sighting in the laser for a second 20 shot eval using the laser.
Heres the first eval with the sights. This is shows all 20 shots throughout the ranges:
On to the laser. First, due to RK surgery many years ago, and now LASEK on top of that, and a 0 power contact on top of all that, heres what I see from a laser. I checked other people see a single, nice round green dot. Here is a pic that depicts what I see as close as I can get it; BTW, right now, 8 days after surgery, I see four full moons. Also the pic includes the first three shots shown at 9:00:
So, what do I aim with? Well, I used the middle of the horizontal line not sure why, I guess I figured to split the difference.
So I mount the Viridian C5L green laser. I set the target at 7 yds and fired three shots to see where I was. You see that shot group in the above pic.
You wont believe this, but I made one adjustment to the windage and got these three shots:
I then did my modified standard eval drill, i.e. 4 shots at 3, 5, 7, 10, & 15 yds and got this:
I so need to say a word about the shot placement. The laser was sighted in at 7 yds. If you move the target beyond 7 yds, the bullet impact will be low. You can see this effect at the 10 and 15 yd range. The effect is explained in this video converged sighting, which is what I used starts at about the 3:00 mark in the vid. BTW, that really low shot was just me. Dont know if I was tired, jerked the trigger or just couldnt see well enough to do any better. Dont forget I can barely see the 3 dot at 15 yds:
Anyway, I think this does show that a laser sight is a viable solution for weak eyes.
I'm too young to be this old!
Getting old isn't good for you!
I guess if you can identify a threat then you can whack him.Just off hand did you try any shots just point shooting out to 10 yards to see how you did without using any aiming devices
